I know people say this would be too complex timeline for GF, and they won't do this as it'll leave those who haven't played gen1/2/remakes confused
but i think they could, if they never downright stated that it's the prelude to gen1/3, just heavily implied it
that way, those who played gen1/3 will pick up on it easily, while those that didn't won't realize there's something they missed
